Abstract
The reasons proposed for the increase in schoolchildren's fractures were an improvement in diagnosis owing to social background and increased participation in sports activities despite the general decline in children's physical fitness and exercise ability. In junior high school girls, in particular, there was an increase in fracture risk due to increased participation in sports activities.
